Poem by Dr Paul Maertens, a parody of a cigarette advertisement,
music composed and performed by David W Solomons
Interesting use of cross-over string effects on the guitar and vocal straining sounds.
The sound sample is performed by the poet and the composer
Fumez!
Des lèvres douces
La fraîcheur du printemps
Fumez!
Blanche, longue
cylindrique
avec filtre
Fumez!
Des lèvres rouges
la chaleur d'un baiser
Fumez!
(English version:
Smoke!
Sweet lips, the freshness
of springtime
Smoke!
White, long, cylindrical
with filter
Smoke!
Red lips
The warmth of a kiss
Smoke!)
Maybe this song is a little out of date these days, since most people
are fully aware of the dangers of smoking,
but the poem and song date from the 1970s, when the dangers were widely ignored
and they are probably worth repeating now in case there are still people who smoke.
